Industry Report Shows: Cannabinoids infused mouthwash works better than regular oral products

Oral Products

In a recent study out of Belgium, research reports that cannabinoid-infused mouthwash is just as effective at killing plaque-related oral bacteria as chlorhexidine, an active ingredient in many prescription mouthwashes. The cannabinoid mouthwash was also more effective at killing bacteria than two popular over-the-counter products.

Authors said the efficacy of the mouthwashes, which separately contained CBD and CBG, “demonstrate the potential of cannabinoids in developing efficient and safer mouthwash products and next generation oral care products.”

“Most of the reported studies show chlorhexidine containing mouthwash as the most effective mouthwash, however tooth staining is an unacceptable side effect of chlorhexidine.”

“In vitro results demonstrate the potential of cannabinoids in developing efficient and safer mouthwash products and next generation oral care products without any fluorides or alcohol.”

The above mentioned study has been published in peer-reviewed Journal of Cannabis Research.

Management of APIRx Pharmaceutical invented unique Oral Care Products: toothpaste and mouthwash containing cannabinoids with antibacterial, antifungal, antiviral, anti-inflammatory and tumoricidal properties such as CBD (cannabidiol) and CBG (cannabigerol), combined with other pharmaceutical ingredients which allow very high local availability (in the mouth) and almost none systemic penetration.
